REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF
COMMUNITY ACTION DERBY LTD
Our respon$lblllti•8 for tha audlt of the flnanclal statements
Our objectlves are to obtain reasonable assuranc8 about whelher the financial stal8rnents as a whol8 are free from
material misststemenl, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of th8 Independent Auditors that includes our
opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audlt conducted In
accordance with ISAS (UK) will always detect a materlal misslalement when it exists. Misstatemenls can arfse from fraud
or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence
the economlc d8cisions of us8rs tsken on the basis of these financial statements.
The exlent lo whlch our procedures are Capable of detectlng irregularikn'es. including fraud Is detalled below.,
Irr8gularities, Including fraud, are instances of non-complianGe with laws and regulallons. We design procedures in line
with our responsibilities, outllned ab)ve, to dele¢t material misstaternenls in respect of irregularits'es. including fraud.
Because of the inherent Ilmltations of an audit, there is a rfsk that W8 will nol d8tect all irregularlties. Including those
leading lo a Mate￿al misstatement in the financial slatam8nts or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increas8S th8
more that complianc6 wilh a law or regulation is removed from thè events and transactions rellected in the financial
siatem8nts. as will be less likely lo become aware of instances of nonrycomplianGe. The fisk is also greater regarding
Irregularlties occurring du8 to fraud rather than effor, as fraud Involves inlentional concealment, forgery. colluslon,
omlssion or misrepresaniatlon.
In identlfylng and assessing the rfsks of material mis81atem8nt In respect of Irregularities, InGluding fraud and
non-compllance with laws and regulatlons, we considered the followlng:
-The nature and control envlronment of the charflable company
-our di8CUS8ions with management and gov8rnanc8 including whether they had knovledge of any a¢lual, su8pe¢ted or
alleged fraud
-The Intemal controls to mitigat8 the rlsk8 of fraud
Followlng our review, V￿ have Identllled the followlng areas whlch are deemed to have the highe8t potential lor fraud or
material misstatemant wlthin Ihe financial statement8:
- The limlng of Income rec(y3nition
- The r16k of management Ove￿Ide
We also consldered any laws and regulatlons that were central to the oper8tlon of the charitabl8 company including
company law, charity law, employment law and health and safety.
The following procedur8s were undertaken in respect of the risks where we idgnlified the polenllal for materfal
misstatement:
Incom8 trans8cllon lesling was perfo￿ed to ensure cornpletene8s of Income. Post year-end income was also revlewed
to ensure that income was recognised In the correct a¢countlng period in accordance wilh lh8 charltable company's
accounting pollcy.
Restricted funds in respect of Income wer8 tested to grant and contra¢t agreements, including correspondence. lo
ensure that the ￿$triCt10n5 Imposed were adhered to by the ¢haritabl8 company in expending those funds. ThSs Included
vouching a sample of expenditure.
Joumal entri8s y￿re r8Vi8wed in the year for approprtateness 8nd enquiries made of management as to the pro¢edures
in place for posting joumal entrb8s. We tested any large. unusual joumals or transadions oulside the normal course of
business.
We reviewed the mlnules of trustees. board meetlrKJs and controls put in place by d)e board of tNste8s including a
review of thalr risk assessment.
At the planning stage discussed with management any lavts and regulations which were central to the operation of
the tharitable company.
Th8 flnanclal statements were revlewed alongside our dis¢losure checklists to identify any unusual or unexpected
relationships or any areas of nOn￿omPlIanCe. Discussions were held with management where il was consldered
additional disdosuras ware required.
We remalned alert to any indications of fraud. material misstatement or non-compliance with laws and regulations
throughoul the audil Induding those relaling to the financial siatements.
